Everybody's laughing in my mindRumors spread 'bout this other girlDo you do what you did when you did with meDoes she love you the way I canDid you forget all the plans that you made with meCause baby I didn't

That should be me holding your handThat should be me making you laughThat should be me this is so sadThat should be me, That should be meThat should be me feeling your kissThat should be me buying you giftsThis is so wrongI can't go on'Till you believeThat that should be meThat should be me

You said you needed a little time from my mistakesIt's funny how you used that time to have me replacedDid you think that I wouldn't see you out at the moviesWhat you doin' to meYou're taking her where we used to goNow if you're trying to break my heartIt's working cause you know

That that should be me holding your handThat should be me making you laughThat should be me this is so sadThat should be meThat should be meThat should be me feeling your kissThat should be me buying you giftsThis is so wrong I can't go on'Till you believeThat should be me

I need to know should I fight for loveOr disarmIt's getting harder to shieldThis pain is my heart

Ooh Ooh

That should be me holding your handThat should be me making you laughThat should be me this is so sadThat should be meThat should be meThat should be me feeling your kissThat should be me buying you giftsThis is so wrongI can't go on'Till you believeThat that should be me

Holding your handThat should be meThe one making you laugh (oh baby oh)That should be me

That should be meGiving you flowersThat should be meTalking for hoursThat should be me (that should be me)That should be me

That should be meNever should've let you goI never should've let you goThat should be meI never shoulda let you goThat should be me

You're on the phone with your girlfriend, she's upsetShe's going off about something that you said

'Cause she doesn't get your humor like I do

I'm in the room, it's a typical Tuesday nightI'm listening to the kind of music she doesn't like

And she'll never know your story like I do

But she wears short skirts, I wear T-shirtsShe's Cheer Captain and I'm on the bleachersDreaming about the day when you wake up and findThat what you're looking for has been here the whole time

If you could see that I'm the one who understands youBeen here all along, so why can't you see?You, you belong with me, you belong with me

Walking the streets with you and your worn-out jeansI can't help thinking this is how it ought to beLaughing on a park bench, thinking to myselfHey, isn't this easy?

And you've got a smile that could light up this whole townI haven't seen it in a while since she brought you downYou say you're fine, I know you better than thatHey, what ya doing with a girl like that?

She wears high heels, I wear sneakersShe's Cheer Captain and I'm on the bleachersDreaming about the day when you wake up and findThat what you're looking for has been here the whole time

If you could see that I'm the one who understands youBeen here all along, so why can't you see?You belong with me

Standing by and waiting at your back doorAll this time how could you not know?Baby, you belong with me, you belong with me

Oh, I remember you driving to my house in the middle of the nightI'm the one who makes you laugh when you know you're 'bout to cryAnd I know your favorite songs and you tell me 'bout your dreamsThink I know where you belong, think I know it's with me

Can't you see that I'm the one who understands you?Been here all along, so why can't you see?You belong with me

Standing by and waiting at your back doorAll this time, how could you not know?Baby, you belong with me, you belong with me

You belong with meHave you ever thought just maybeYou belong with me?You belong with me
